Andrius Arutiunian is an Armenian-Lithuanian artist and composer working with hybrid forms of listening, vernacular knowledges and contemporary cosmologies. His research often experiments with temporality, resonance, and alternate methods for world-ordering. Through playful investigation of hypnotic and enigmatic forms, Arutiunian’s installations, films, and performances challenge the concepts of musical and political attunement.

Arutiunian graduated in Music Composition at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. In 2022 he participated in the 59th Venice Art Biennale representing Armenia with a solo show entitled Gharīb. Other biennial shows include the 14th Shanghai Biennale, the 15th Gwangju Biennale, the 17th Lyon Biennale, the 9th Asian Art Biennale, 2nd Riyadh Biennale and the 15th Baltic Triennial. Selected shows include Palais de Tokyo (Paris), Centre Pompidou (Paris), M HKA (Antwerp), Stroom (The Hague), Kadist (Paris), Stedelijk Museum (Amsterdam), Pinchuk Art Centre (Kyiv), Survival Kit 13 (Riga), FACT (Liverpool), Memphis (Linz), Almaty Museum of Arts (Almaty), MO Museum and Contemporary Art Centre (Vilnius). In 2024 Arutiunian was selected for the Future Generation Art Prize shortlist. He was DAAD artist-in-residence fellow in 2023. Upcoming projects include participation in Performa 2025 in New York and La Biennale Gherdëina 2026. His works are in various collections including Centre Pompidou and KADIST.
